The 17-year-old who was critically injured in last week’s car crash in La Plata died Wednesday evening.

Micah Enstrom of Hughesville died from injuries sustained in the single-vehicle accident on Turkey Hill Road in La Plata.

At 7:30 p.m. Oct. 18, Gabriel William Maxwell, 22, of Waldorf was driving a Chevy Colorado south on the roadway when he lost control of the pickup truck at a curve and struck a tree, police reported.

Maxwell was pronounced dead on the scene.

Enstrom and Anthony Hyshaw, 19, of Waldorf were flown to a hospital.

Officers reported that Enstrom was in critical condition, and it appeared Hyshaw had injuries that were not life-threatening.

Enstrom’s grandfather, Marvin Harris, said at 4 a.m. Thursday morning he received a phone call informing him that Enstrom had saved four lives, having donated his organs.

Harris recalled recently going with Enstrom to get a temporary identification card and Enstrom discussing with him that he wanted to be an organ donor. Enstrom’s grandmother, Dona Harris, said she, too, remembers talking with Enstrom about organ donation.
